I need help!! My van is very hard to start, It take about 10 attempts to start it. I heat it a couple of times before starting it doesn't seem to work. I changed the glow plugs last week and it still is a pain to start!! Please can anyone give me some advice, thanks.

We need a few more details really for a comprehensive answer!
As Addo said, check you are getting voltage at the plugs and try the bulb primer for the fuel system first.
Ether spray/Easy start is a spray can used to "encourage" combustion

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

The only addiction to ether is that of the lazy or skint owner driver who won't rectify the problem.
Good diagnostic tool.
Also good for the first start up of your petrol mower if you've forgotten to drain the fuel out before winter storage.

Smells nice to !!!!!!!!!!!!
